Family Day Out

We had another lovely day at Jill's monthly crop yesterday (Cardinal Colours). I made the layout below and nearly finished another. We celebrated both Jill and Anita's birthdays, which are later this month.

My parents recently gave me this photo of my grandparents and some friends, we are not sure where it was taken, but it looks like a beach and they are in deck chairs. I am waiting for more derails as to who the other three people are and I will add journalling. The background paper is from the Granola collection by Basic Grey. The patterned papers and die cut elements are from Pink Paislee. I used Anita's Ash branch punch and added a lot of pearls blossoms and gems. The The layout design was scrap lifted from one I spotted by Gabrielle Pocllaco. This and other stunning layouts by the creative and talented GabrellePocllaco can be seen on her blog - Such a Pretty Mess. Pop over and take a look at all her pretty layouts.
